What is recorded here

Corker is called a fairy fort, but it is an earthen ringfort: a made place, not a fantasy place. Under that name it becomes a chamber where the dead, the displaced and the unseen keep company. The chamber has no walls of flesh, no door and no owner. It has shape, memory and a warning. It exists to show that the visible world is not the whole world.
